Article Evaluation
The wikipedia article Black Lives Matter is very thorough and covers all aspects of the movement and counterarguments to the movement's message. The entire article explores topics and branches of the movement that all relate back to the topic of the article. In my opinion, the article remains neutral throughout. The author does not use any "I" statements or overly expressive language. In the Talk page of the article, one user expressed their opinion that the article fails to acknowledge any riots that have occurred under the name of BLM. Upon further review of the article, I found that the author does in fact include protests that turned violent on the side of the BLM activists against police officers. The author though does fail to acknowledge how the hashtag movement was created by queer women which has been a huge part of their overall message. The hashtag movement was started by queer women to express their frustrations with the deaths of black people at the hands of police, but to also give a voice to black women and black transgender/queer peoples. Otherwise the article uses valid sources that follow wikipedia's guidelines to appropriate sources. The article also is a Wikiproject under multiple categories including African diaspora, sociology/social movements, poltics etc. It is rated GA class and also high importance to mid importance. The page is up to date and includes many of the recent involvement with BLM and the presidential election up to the present day. Overall I believe the article is well articulated and informational.
